I hate to tell you but Ricky is the reason Donny won 10 championships and 10 Nationals.  Donny wouldn't either without Rick Warner.  I know the 15 has 11 Nationals...every once in a while a blind squirrel finds nuts!  There are kings and then there are king makers....Warner is a king maker!

ricky is also the reason Rico is fast right now!  I know most people don't want to hear facts!



So how many championships and crown jewels has Rick won before and after Donny? I only ask because you are the king of opinions .

Perfect example of what I was saying...

Warner isn't "the" reason for their sucess, he's a big part of it

" I know most people don't want to hear facts!"

NO.... we know the difference between facts & opinions

Whats wrong with you anyway????

I think Larsen is a cherry picker or a true outlaw when he is in a sprint car. The HL schedule seems to follow the nascar schedule a little bit so his available days fall on days when the HL race. If the pay outs are similar he is gonna be at a HL race because that supports his other business venture. He obviously isnt racing sprints for the money. By the end of July we will know if he chooses Husets over a regular show elsewhere. But it wil be hard to tell because the HL schedule is also set up to cherry pick high dollar WoO shows.




The golden boy cherry picker just pick off the wall at Indy with both the front and back of his car, something the announcers said may have never happened before.  Way over his head, once again!

LOL.  As evidenced by all the crown jewels won by ricky compared to Schatz since the split.  LOL.  One of the 2 has won all 3.  The other has won 0 of the 3.

Why didn't Rico win tonight? Did Ricky the "King Maker" have a head cold and missed the set-up or something?

C'mon

Larson is never "over his head " in a race car

You don't have to like him to realize he's great...

"True outlaw", not "cherry picker"

My understanding of "cherry picker" is a guy who goes for easy wins.

Larson does the opposite, goes for the Big $$$ races (or weekday HL events)
